I also went to Pistola Riva, sailed all 5 days, The other half of team
sacto went earlier and sailed 8 days out of 10.

Sunday, Sailed until 7pm, best swell was later in the day.

Monday 7/28
So Monday was another yadda-yadda day, 3.9/4.4 the swell had dropped down
to mostly waist high. The wind was the strongest of all 5 days, which made
for more wicked air, One guy broke his foot.

For Thurs, Fri, Sat & Sun I used the 4.9,4.4,4.4,4.9 Windwing MP's I weigh
175 lbs and used the ASD 8'5". Most people were on smaller sails. The windwings
rig small and have great range when OP'd.

Too sore and tired to sail the delta today.......a rare occasion.....Steve
